Gaslighter

You told her you'd be home by ten

Played it off as overtime

But you were out to meet a friend

Cash in hand no questions asked

Just a promise to make amends

You called the bluff on a jackpot hand

And yet you stand as a pair again

In fear of detriment as the dealer calls

When you heard the sirens

You ran to hide

You caused the violence

Oh but you left him behind

As they kicked his head in

You watched from afar

In the midst of crisis

You add fuel to the fire

She told you again and again

Your escapades were dangerous

And that she needed you there and then

In nine months time you would change

And so you promised to make amends

You'd hang your gloves up

Throw the towel in

You swore that the fighting would end

And so you left him all alone

When you heard the sirens

You ran to hide

You caused the violence

Oh but you left him behind

As they kicked his head in

You watched from afar

In the midst of crisis

You add fuel to the fire

When you heard the sirens

You ran to hide

You caused the violence

Oh but you left him behind

As they kicked his head in

You watched from afar

In the midst of crisis

You add fuel to the fire

You add fuel to the fire

You add fuel to the fire
